BYPASS ENGINE WITH FLEXIBLE DUCT STRUCTURE Filed July 7, 1958 F'IGJ /0 v III"IIIIIIIIIIII/fi/II/I/II/IIIII/II(III/III IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII]?s\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\v INVENTOR ALEXANDER KURT] ATTORNEY BYPASS ENGINE WITH FLEXIBLE DUCT STRUCTURE Alexander Kurti, Wethersfield, Conn., assignor to United Aircraft Corporation, East Hartford, Conn., a corporation of Delaware Filed- July 7, 1958, Ser. No. 746,971 3 Claims. (Cl. 60-3932) This invention relates. to bypass flow engines and more particularly to the structure of the bypass ducting.
It is an object of this invention to teach bypass ducting for a bypass flow engine with provisions for accommodating axial and radial misalignments between the concentric cases forming a bypass passage around the engine, which misalignment is caused by machining tolerances. and relative thermal expansion between parts during engine operation.
rigid cases.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent from the specification and claims, and from the accompanying drawings which illustrate an embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 1 is a side view of a bypass engine, broken away in part, to illustrate the environment of my misalignment accommodation means.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged viewof a portion of the bypass engine illustrated in Fig. 1 and showing my invention with greater particularity.
Fig. 1 shows bypass engine 10, which may be of the ducted fan type fully described in United States Patents Nos. 2,458,600.; 2,610,465; and 2,753,685.. Engine 10 comprises 'air inlet section 12, fan section 14, compressor section 16, burner section 1 8, turbine section 20, exhaust outlet section 22 and bypass. passage 24, all of which are concentric about engine axis30. Turbine 20 may be split so that certain rotors thereof drive fan 14 'and' other rotorsthereof drive compressor 16. The air "which enters engine inlet 12 is compressed in passing through fan 14 and passes by one of two possible paths to exhaust outlet section 22. A portion of the air leaving fan section 14 will pass through compressor section 16 Where it is further compressed, then through burner section 18 where it is heated due to the combustion taking place in combustion chambers 32 which receive fuel from fuel manifold 34, then} through turbine section 20 wherein, energy is extracted therefrom to drive compressor-1'6; in fa1i"14, and thence through exhaust gas passage 36'to be discharged to atmosphere throughexhaust outlet 22 to perform a thrust generating function. The remainder of the air from fan 14 passes through bypass passage 24 which directs the air from fan 14 around compressor 16, burner 18, turbine 20 and discharges it to atmosphere through exhaust outlet 22 to perform a thrust generating function.
Engine inner case, duct or shell 38 is of circular cross section and concentric about axis 30 and envelops compressor section 16, burner section 18, turbine section 20 and coacts with stationary inner body 40, which is pre- United States Patent 0 "ice .mate.
2,943,449 Patented July 5, 1960 ferably of conical shape and projects downstream of turbine 20 concentrically about axis 30, to define annular exhaust gas. passage 36. Engine outer case, duct or shell 42 is also of circular cross section and concentric about axis 30 and. envelops fan 14 and engine inner case 38 and coacts with engine inner case to define annular bypass passage 24 which communicates with engine fan 14 and exhaust outlet section 22. Both engine inner case 38 and engine outer case 42 are of rigid construction and preferably composed of a plurality of abutting and solidly joined case sections, such as 44, 46 and 48 of Fig. 2, and are of extensive dimension in both an axial and radial direction. Accordingly, any machining tolerances in the solidly joined case sections and any tolerance buildup which occurs in assembling the various solidly joined case sections in assembling engine inner case 38 and engine outer case 42, together with the relative thermal expansion which will occur between inner case 38 and outer case 42 during engine operation, present. alignment and matching problems, between engine inner case 38 and engine outer case 42, of both an axial and. radial nature. The thermal expansion problem is particularly acute since the inner case 38 is positioned adjacent compressor section 16 and burner section 18, which operate at high temperature, while outer duct 42 is cooled not only by the ambient air external thereof but also by the air from fan 14 which passes adjacent thereto, in bypass passage 24.
It will be noted that inner case 38 has a frusto-conical portion 50 at. its, upstream end and that outer case 42 has a. frusto-conical' portion 52 enveloping radially aligned and. concentric therewith so that frusto-conical portions 50. and 52 form a frusto-conical annular passage therebetween.
Referring to Fig. 2 we see that cylindrical shroud structures 54 and 56 surround compressor section 16 and carry the stationary vanes. 5.8: thereof between the rotating bladed; rotors, 60 thereof. Shrouds 54 and 56 are joined. by-- mating flanges at connection 62, while the upstream. end of shroud 54 ispiloted in axially sliding engagement on cylindrical surface 66 adjacent the leading edge 68'of inner case 38. The frusto-conical portion50 of inner case 38. is shown in Fig. 2 to be joined at conmotion 62. to. cylindrical shrouds 54 and 56, through support; 70. .Thissupport is. designed so as to permit iadiak thermal growth to inner structure. The front end of theffrusto-conical portion 50 of rigid inner case 38 s defined, by radial plane surface 97 and cylindrical sur- 'f:aces.-.72 onwhich axial and radial end surfaces 78 and .2; offrusto-conical floating sleeve 80 are received in a Similar manner plane radial surface 84 and cylindrical surface 76 of the frusto-conical front structure 98' re.- cclyenaxial and radial surfaces 99 and 7.4 of frusto-coni- G31 floating Sleeve 80.. It will be noted that cylindrical end surfaces 76. and. 7 8. of sleeve 80 are axially and radially spaced as arethe corresponding cylindrical end surfaces. 14 and 2 of rigid; portion 50, with, which they Sleeve. 8 1) is thus axially and radially movable with, respect vto rigid frusto-conical portion 50 whichv includes member 98..

It will be apparent that floating sleeve 80 permits axial and even radial movability between inner and outer ducts 38 and 42 during operation and further permits the fabrication and assembly of inner and outer cases 38, 42 and 44 without critical regard for axial dimensioning since such will be between surfaces 74 and 76' and 72 and 78, respectively,

While a turbofan engine has been used to illustrate an environment for my invention, it should be borne in mind that it is equally applicable to any type of bypass engine including the turbo-ramjet.
